something that helps when I'm grieving is to imagine the person I've lost isn't gone, they're just off across the world staying in a nice hotel, sailing the sea, and going on adventures. I imagine a tearful and meaningful goodbye for now as they set off and hope they're doing well.

Maybe that could help?

Sometimes it helps to write down everything you're feeling, or express it in someway, a video or a letter or a recording. Keep doing it until you find what works for you. People deal with grief in their own way and on their own time. I would focus on your own grief first and then just be there to support your brother. Do something your dad would want you to do for Father's Day to honor his memory.
